Family Picnic 2017

everyone is together (upwards of 60 or so).Our attendance this year was 37 - still a great turn out!

The old tent was up, the weather was holding and we were as ready as we could be

to welcome those who could come.

The theme was "let's celebrate Canada"

After all, this is Canada's 150th birthday year!!

The visiting went on during

the pot-luck picnic!

There was SO much good food and

of course, I didn't get pictures of the feast. There was pulled pork, pulled chicken, amazing salads, meat balls, croissant sandwiches, veggie trays, Kentucky Fried Chicken, baked beans and oh so much more ...

This bunch sure knows how to cook!

Sweet Kate was the youngest addition to the Gerber Family.
She's adorable!

A fabulous gathering! Love all the Celebrate Canada decor from folks wearing red to the dessert...that's inspired! 🇨🇦 It is always good to keep the family bonded and you seem to know just how to do that. I would love a hayride down the bush lane...looks like such fun. Are the commemorative tulips still blooming? Mine are.

What a lovely gathering place you and the farmer have. Your family is fortunate to be able to gather at your lovely home. Love the decoration on that Rhubarb dessert! I'm hungry now for a real good farm potluck!!
